The recursive algorithm given below can be used to compute gcd(a, b) where a and b are non-negative integer, not both zero. procedure gcd(a, b) if a > b then gcd(a, b) := gcd(b, a) else if a = 0 then gcd(a, b) := b else if a = 1 then gcd(a, b) := 1 else if a and b are even then gcd(a, b) := 2gcd(a/2, b/2) else if a is odd and b is even then gcd(a, b) := gcd(a, b/2) else gcd(a, b) := gcd(a, b − a) Use this algorithm to compute (a) gcd(124, 244) (b) gcd(4424, 2111).
Coding the given algorithm in python 3, the greatest common divisor of the values (124 and 244) and (4424 and 2111) are 4 and 1 respectively.
The program implementation goes thus :
def gcd(a, b):
#initialize a function named gcd which takes in two parameters
if a>b:
#checks if a is greater than b
return gcd (b, a)
#if true interchange the Parameters and Recall the function
elif a == 0:
return b
elif a == 1:
return 1
elif((a%2 == 0)and(b%2==0)):
#even numbers leave no remainder when divided by 2, checks if a and b are even
return 2 * gcd(a/2, b/2)
elif((a%2 !=0) and (b%2==0)):
#checks if a is odd and B is even
return gcd(a, b/2)
else :
return gcd(a, b-a)

Answer:
K) I, II, and III
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the quadratic equation in standard form, h = -at² + bt + c, where h is the height or the projectile of a baseball that changes over time, t. In the given quadratic equation, c represents the constant term. Altering the constant term, c, affects the h-intercept, the maximum value of h, and the t-intercept of the quadratic equation.
I. The h-interceptThe h-intercept is the value of the height, h, when t = 0. This means that setting t = 0 will leave you with the value of the constant term. In other words:
Set t = 0:
h = -at² + bt + c
h = -a(0)² + b(0) + c
h = -a(0) + 0 + c
h = 0 + c
h = c
Therefore, the value of the h-intercept is the value of c.
Hence, altering the value of c will also change the value of the h-intercept.
II. The maximum value of hThe maximum value of h occurs at the vertex, (t, h ). Changing the value of c affects the equation, especially the maximum value of h. To find the value of the t-coordinate of the vertex, use the following formula:
t = -b/2a
The value of the t-coordinate will then be substituted into the equation to find its corresponding h-coordinate. Thus, changing the value of c affects the corresponding h-coordinate of the vertex because you'll have to add the constant term into the rest of the terms within the equation. Therefore, altering the value of c affects the maximum value of h.
III. The t-interceptThe t-intercept is the point on the graph where it crosses the t-axis, and is also the value of t when h = 0. The t-intercept is the zero or the solution to the given equation. To find the t-intercept, set h = 0, and solve for the value of t. Solving for the value of t includes the addition of the constant term, c, with the rest of the terms in the equation. Therefore, altering the value of c also affects the t-intercept.
Therefore, the correct answer is Option K: I, II, and III.
John buys a computer on sale for $450.00. He
pays $50.00 less than have the original price. How
much was the original price of the computer?
Write and solve an equation
Answer:
$450+$50= X
X=$500
Step-by-step explanation:
The sale price is $450.00, so you take that amount and $50.00 which the amount he paid less and add them both. We do this because we want to see the original price of the computer. If it mentioned the original price already and the amount $50.00 and asked the sail price instead, we would have to subtract to get the answer.
Here we have to add.
450+50=500
(add the dollar sign)
$450+$50=X
X=$500
Write a polynomial function of the least degree that has roots of 3 and (4 + i).

Polynomial Function:
Answer:
x³ - 11x² + 41x - 51Step-by-step explanation:
The least number of degree is 3 and the third root should be (4 - i) to make polynomial rational.
The polynomial is:
(x - 3)(x - (4 + i))(x - (4 + i)) = (x - 3)(x² -x(4 + i + 4 - i) + (4 + i)(4 - i)) = (x - 3)(x² - 8x + 16 - (-1)) = (x - 3)(x² - 8x + 17) = x³ - 8x² + 17x - 3x² + 24x - 51 = x³ - 11x² + 41x - 51In a recent survey of 288 people, 72 said that their favorite color of car was white.

what are the leading coefficient and degree of the polynomial?
Answer:
leading coefficient: 2degree: 7Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of a term with one variable is the exponent of the variable. The degrees of the terms (in the same order) are ...
6, 0, 7, 1
The highest-degree term is 2x^7. Its coefficient is the "leading" coefficient, because it appears first when the polynomial terms are written in decreasing order of their degree:
2x^7 -7x^6 -18x -4
The leading coefficient is 2; the degree is 7.

When a term has more than one variable, its degree is the sum of the exponents of the variables. The term xy, for example, is degree 2.
A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 813 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Saturday. There were 63 more cheeseburger sold than burgers. How many hamburgers were sold on Saturday?
9514 1404 393
Answer:
375 hamburgers
Step-by-step explanation:
Let h represent the number of hamburgers. Then h+63 is the number of cheeseburgers, and the combined total is ...
h +(h +63) = 813
2h = 813 -63 = 750
h = 750/2 = 375
375 hamburgers were sold on Saturday.
_____
Additional comment
In a "sum and difference" problem like this, the smaller number is half the difference between the sum and the difference. h = (813 -63)/2 = 375. This generic solution applies to all "sum and difference" problems.

Suppose `h\left(t\right)=-5t^{2}+10t+3`is an expression giving the height of a diver above the water (in meters), t seconds after the diver leaves the springboard.
a. How high above the water is the springboard? Explain how you know.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a) The height of the springboard above the water should be h(0) : Read, the height at t = 0
h(0) = -5(0) + 10(0) + 3
h(0) = 0 + 0 + 3
h(0) = 3
a) 3 meters
b) The time it takes the diver to hit water should be, the positive 0 solution for t. Remember, in a quadratic equation, there are two values for t where a parabola crosses the horizontal axis, which in this case would be t. Just by looking at the function, h(t) = -5t2 + 10t + 3 , one should be able to see that it cannot be factored easily, so it requires the Quadratic Formula to find the zeros ; x = -b ±√(b2-4ac) / 2a
Substitute t for x, and use the coefficients for a, b, c:
t = (-10 ± √((102 - 4(-5)(3)))/2(-5)
t = (-10 ±√(100 + 60))/-10
t = (-10 ±√160)/-10) ; Now factor the 160 to simplify:
t = (-10 ±√(10*16))/-10
t = (-10 ±4√10)/-10 ; Factor out leading coefficient of -2 from the numerator:
t = -2(5 ± 2√10)/-10
t = (5 ± 2√10)/5
Using a calculator to find the zeros, and disregarding the negative zero (because t starts at 0):
t ≈ 2.265
b) approx. 2.265 seconds for diver to hit water.
c) To find this, set the function equal to 3 to find what other value for t would be equal to 3 (we know one is 0).
-5tt + 10t + 3 = 3
-5t2 + 10t = 0 ; factor out t
t(-5t + 10) = 0
We know t = 0:
We also know that -5t + 10 = 0
-5t = -10
t = 2
c) 2 seconds. This is the time that diver would equal height of t=0 which is where he started, and where he equals the height of the springboard.
d and e) The peak of the dive (parabola), is determined using the formula h = -b/2a (Derived from the Quadratic Formula) to find the y value (in this case, the h value, answering e) and then using that result in the function to find the x value (in this case, the t value answering d) of the point where the parabola (dive path) reaches a maximum(height), or minimum(in upward opening parabolas).
h = -10/2(-5)
h = -10/-10
h = 1
h(1) = -5(1)2 + 10(1) + 3
h(1) = -5 + 10 + 3
h(1) = 8
d) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached peak of dive.
e) At t = 1 second, diver will have reached a maximum height of 8 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:
The line goes down 1 grid square for each grid square to the right. Each grid square represents 1 unit in both the x- and y-directions. That means the slope is ...
m = rise/run = -1/1 = -1
The slope of the line is -1.
Apply the distributive property to factor out the greatest common factor.
6+30=6+30
6 + 30
The greatest common factor is 6, so take it out. We get...
6 (1 + 5)

How are expressions 1/4 of 12 and 12 divided by 4
In the EXPLORE online library, the ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3 and the total number of novels is 624. If Joe buys more novels and the ratio becomes 7:3, then how many novels have been bought in total?
Using a system of equations, it is found that 1530 more novels have been bought in total.
For the system, we have that:
x is the number of novels.y is the number of dictionaries.The ratio of the number of novels to that of dictionaries is 2:3, hence:
[tex]\frac{x}{y} = \frac{2}{3}[/tex]
[tex]3x = 2y[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{3x}{2}[/tex]
Total number of novels is 624, hence:
[tex]x = 624[/tex]
[tex]y = \frac{3}{2} \times 624 = 936[/tex]
Buys z more novels, and the ratio becomes [tex]\frac{7}{3}[/tex], hence:
[tex]\frac{624 + z}{923} = \frac{7}{3}[/tex]
[tex]1872 + 3z = 6461[/tex]
[tex]z = \frac{6461 - 1872}{3}[/tex]
[tex]z = 1530[/tex]
1530 more novels have been bought in total.
